In your case that I think there are two possibilities one is that you may have mastitis which may be inflammatory or infection especially with the drainage of blood and that can cause the pain. You you may need to antibiotics and also may get check your WBC for infection
Secondly this may also be signing of for malignancy but you have not given me your age so I cannot definitely say that but if there is no active infection then you should get biopsy because the mammograms are not very definite for diagnosis. Thank you very much and contact me again if you have more questions thank you
